Artists must create on the same scale that society has the capacity to destroy.

About Me


Art is anything you can get away with. - Andy Warhol
If Noah had the benefit of hind sight on his ship he could have snatched two unicorns and left behind the mother fucking pigs. - Aesop Rock
Shortish: I'm an artist. And I act accordingly as such, filter and output. No living creature will ever create anything truly original. It's simply impossible.
Longer: I'm pretty much a laid back easy going guy. Recently I almost died from a car accident but I needed to accomplish something before I passed. I embed my ideals in a romantic mindset but I'm more aware of a realistic list of dependencies. I'm the Artistic Director for the band 10 years. I can really get into video art, not like indy films but more like the motion picture canvas. One day i hope to have a huge video installation set up in the Guggenheim next to Bill Viola's work.I forgive more than i used to. I've forgiven myself. I require nothing but loyalty and honesty from my friends and all i ask from strangers is to avoid hasty generalization. My friends are great people who deserve the best out of me and i live each day making sure i deserve their company....[if !IE] ..[endif]
